I am just looking at the evidence that shows how much some CRJ transition training will help get a pilot up to speed before reporting to training. Many people have benefited from this training.
The argument is being made here is legitimate, but not the only argument that can be made. The other poster is claiming you need some Baron time before transitioning. Well, let me tell you that I would go sit in the right seat of a Baron for 500 hours if I could, but most of these companies don't have right seat baron programs. The Captain slots are limited.
No denial that experience helps, but Baron time isn't going to get a guy up to speed on CRJ procedures like a CRJ standards course will.
So to answer your question, all of the guys who took the CRJ transition passed, while the others didn't. I can't speak for everyone though.
